Hooray For Uncle Jake!

Every kid should have an Uncle Jake, or U.J., as he likes to be called. Jake raked up a big pile of leaves just so his nieces and nephews could jump in and have fun! Maggie was the only one who did not agree with the others' enthusiasm.

You can tell by this photo that Ashlyn had a great time playing in the leaves! The kids had so much fun that I was tempted to jump in and join them. It would be great if adults could be as easily entertained as children. It definitely would be more cost effective!

Jake is a great uncle. All the kids love their U.J. And I can tell by the way he treats his nieces and nephews that he is going to be a wonderful father someday. Three cheers for U.J. - Hip Hip Hooray! Hip Hip Hooray!! Hip Hip Hooray!!! We love you Uncle Jake!

Hello! said...

That's one of my favorite things of fall~ piles of leaves! And who says they are not for adults. My dad had a big pile on his lawn and me and the dogs jumped in them!

Hey, will you send him to my house? I have TONS of leaves that need to be raked up and I know the kids would love to jump in them!

What a great guy! Speaking from an aunt's perspective, little buddies are the best. If it weren't for my little buddies, I would have gone crazy years ago.
